265717 - "Copy Image" distorts file size when pasted into AIM Window

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Michael]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041001 Firefox/0.10.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041001 Firefox/0.10.1

When using "Copy Image" and pasting into an AIM window(version 5.2) direct
connect session the image size is larger than it should be.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Right Click  and "Copy Image" on any image
2. Paste into IM window (I'm personally using AIM version 5.2)
3. Image size will be roughly 6x bigger than it would be if you saved image then
clicked and dragged it into window.
Actual Results:  
Image size will be roughly 6x bigger than it should be. Although "Copy Image"
paisting it into MS Paint seems to fix the problem and does not increase the
file size.

Expected Results:  
The "Copy Image" feature should not increase the image size when paisting into
AIM Window.

you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
